![Industrial Laminate Descriptions]( "Industrial Laminate Descriptions")
Industrial Laminate Descriptions
Industrial laminates generally refers to a class of electrical insulating materials produced by impregnating fibrous webs of material with thermosetting resins, then fusing multiple layers together under high temperature and pressure. The result is an infusible laminate structure having a versatile combination of electrical, mechanical and chemical properties.
| Grade | Description |

| Grade XX | Hard paper-reinforced laminate with phenolic resin binder; good mechanical properties, high dielectric strength and resistance to moisture suit it for many usual electrical applications; good machinability. |
| Grade XXX | Paper-reinforced laminate with a phenolic resin binder; has approximately the same mechanical properties as Grade XX but is considerably better electrically due to its high resin content; desirable for use at radio frequencies and under high humidity conditions (e.g., in telephone jacks where dimensional stability is important); minimum cold flow. |
| Grade XP | Paper-reinforced laminate with phenolic resin binder and addition of a plasticizer; similar to Grade X but more flexible and slightly better electrically (not as strong mechanically); may be punched readily at room temperature in thicknesses up to 1/16-in; hot-punched up to 3/32 in. |

IPC 4101 Standards
IPC (formally, Institute of Printed Circuits) - IPC 4101A - Specifications for Base Materials for Rigid and Multilayer Printed Boards." This specification generally covers the glass epoxy products though it was written primarily for copper clad materials. The base laminate properties are used widely in the industry for unclad glass reinforced products that are produced in sheet form. Norplex-Micarta's G10, FR-4, and G11 products meet and exceed the criteria established and published in the IPC 4101A specification. This specification has been adopted worldwide due to its popularity amongst copper clad laminate manufactures and the work that the IPC has done to standardize many different specifications from various countries.

![Kapton® Tape (Silicone Adhesive)]( "Kapton® Tape (Silicone Adhesive)")
Kapton® Tape (Silicone Adhesive)
Kapton® Tape (Silicone Adhesive) is a film, tough, thin, designed for high temperature applications; used on coils, capacitors with temperature rating 220°C application.
DuPont Kapton polyimide film can remain stable in a wide range of temperatures, from -273 °C to +400 °C (0 K - 673 K). Kapton is used in, among other things, flexible printed circuits (flexible electronics) and Thermal Micrometeoroid Garments, the outside layer of space suits. Kapton is also commonly used as a material for windows of all kinds at x-ray sources (synchrotron beam-lines and x-ray tubes) and x-ray detectors. Its high mechanical and thermal stability as well as its high transmittance to x-rays make it the preferred material. It also does not suffer from radiation damage. Another prominent material for these purposes is beryllium.
The thermal conductivity of Kapton in temperatures from 0.5 to 5 kelvin is rather high. This together with its good dielectric qualities and its availability as thin sheets have made it a favorite material in cryogenics (devices working in temperatures down to absolute zero, -273 °C or 0 K).
Kapton is also regularly used as an insulator in ultra-high vacuum environments as it has a low outgassing rate.
